THE SkTIoSAL-LOTrA.

THE NATlONAL-IOITA.
Las, night at the National the play was
pawn Ticket No. 30, and the player was
Lotta. Lotia The same yesterday, to-day
and forever! The Young were there to
laugh and cheer, the old to revive the mom-
orics Of tlidr youth and live over again the
hours of the bygonc years. The play is bet
ter for the cast than most of its kind. and
the star is not the only character In 1t. Lotta
as Mag is the same bright, vivaoious little
kicker she was steen years ago, and she
catches the audience as usual, which 1t is
none of our business 10 criucisc. Mr. p. II.
Anderson IS Uncle Harris made an un-
doubted hit, and with only twcnty-four
hours study of the part. II he keeps on,
which he will do, he will make it compare
with his Q,iip George Boniiacc, barring a
slight exuberance, did Flash in an exceed
ingly taking manner, and Mr.. Harris
John SternhOld was grave and dignitied. Mr..
Scott's Charley SdIe was also good, and Miss
Richardson made a rattling good-lookinp
alice .Sterntold. The pawn Ticket No.
2l0,n on the whole is very fair all round
play, and, with Lotta to .he fore, will draw
good audiences. Again tonight,
ALpAuGu's-"rHE LITTLE TYCOON"
Not an overwhelming audience, but an
apprecative and applausive one, greeted
"The Little Tycoon" at Albangh's last night
and it showed that it liked what it liked in
spite of all opposition. 1t isn't necessary TO
go into the details of abstruse criticism on
"Hhe Iittl, Tycoon" II has had Its dose

The Approaching Festivities.

There is no nation in existence whose
citizens have more regard for the Christmas
festivities than the great American people.
Their children are taught from infancy to
look forward with much pleasure to the an
nual coming event, when their little hearts
are made exceedingly happy in the thought
OF receiving gifts and having good time
generally. And so it is with the adults
especially with the sterner sex, They too
look forward with great deal Of pleasure
to the enjoyment of the holiday
festivities and there is one thing needlul, or
at least the majority Of men think so in this
country, and that 10 a pure and gentle
stimulant which does no harm, but Is real
ly benefit to the human race when not
abused, and when It is it is not the fault of
the liquor but that class of men who abuse
1t.
We would advise all who wish genuine
unadulterated article to patronize our old
and tried friend, James Tharp, at SIS Fstreet
northwest, where you will find his unex-
celled old rye Berkeley whisky the finest
article in the world, also the pure juice of
the grape and excellent cigars. Orders for
his goods by postal will receive prompt and
accurate attention.

THE KENNEDY MURDER.
Tho Trial of John Daley Appointed for
Tuesday Next.

inc Jrfal OF Jonn DuIcy appointed Tor
Tuesday Next.
Messrs Clagett and Miller, counsel for
John Daley, charged with the murderof
], G. G. Kennedy on July 13 last, stated
to Justice Montgomery in the Criminal
Court this morning that they had re-
ceived notice that this case would be
called on Monday next. They asked
that the trial be postponed, owing to the
difficulty in securing witnesses during
holiday week. A number of their wit
nesses lived in Pennsylvania, and the
time was scarcely sufficient to have them
in attendance. They were otherwise
entirely ready TO try the case.
The District Attorney changed the
date to Tuesday, saying that Judging
from the experience they were having
with the case of Lewis Williams ii would
take two or three days to obtain jury,
and the defendant would have that much
additional time.
The court stated that this date would
be allowed to stand, and that if there
was any reason for delay at the time of
trial the case would be postponed.

INTERPRETING THE LAW.
The Right of Merchants to Make Gifts
with Sales.

WIN Nnless
James l.. Barbour of the firm Of Bar
bour & Hamilton, the wholesale gro-
GERS, was charged in the Police Court
this morning with conducting gift en-
terprise. The ofronsc was alleged TO
consist in giving presents with packages
of yeast powder sold at his store. Mr..
Padgett said TINT the case was brought
for the purpose of testing the applica-
tion of the law.
Mr.. Henry Wise Garnett appeared
for Mr.. Barbour, and stated that 1t is the
general custom in stores to give pieces
Of glassware with certain goods. Mr..
Garnett and Mr.. Barbour assured the
| Court that there was no chance in the
transaction ut all, because every person
gets the same kind of article.
Prosecuting Attorney Padgett ad-
mitted that this statement was tcorrcct.
Detective Raft stated that Major Of
Police Moore called his attention to II
number Of complaints against Mr.. Bar
bour for giving presents with each pack
age Of yeast powder he sells. The pack
ages of yeast powder contain tickets that
entitlc the holders 10 presents, and tho
value OF the present is graduated with
the size Of the package.
The court said that there was no in
tent to induce, as there was no chance,
and il also depended very much on tho
character OF the man who conducts such
aplace;
''If there is any violation of law il is
technical one" said the Judge.
Mr.. Padgett read the law, which is q
rather remarkable one. It holds that IL
is unlawful to offer prizes or TO "bcstow"
anything Of value on purchasers of
articles.
A recess Of fifteen minutes wastaken,
until a package of the yeast powder
could be brought from Mr.. Barbour's
store.
A package of Eureka yeast powder
was shown the Court, with ticket on
the outside, emitting the holder to q six.
inch glass fruit dish. The Court said il
was very broad law and he took the
case under advisement. Mr.. Barbour
gave his personal bonds. This is d
matter that interests scores of grocers.

Foraker Sticking to 1t.

SPRINGFIELD, O., September 20.--In
an interview this evening with a repre-
sentative of the Associated Press, General
A. s Bushnell, member of Governor
Foraker's staff, authorized the following
statement concerning Mrs. Cleyeland's
reception OF Governor and Mrs. Foraker
at the Academy of Music In Philadelphia
last Friday evening:
"Preceded by Governor Beaver, oi
Pennsylvania, and his staff, Governor and
Mrs. Foraker and our party advanced to
be received. Governor Beaver and party
were warmly greeted by both the Presi
dent and Mrs. Cleveland, who shook
hands with them cordially. President
Cleveland then shook hands with Cover.
nor Foraker, but his face was as ex-
pressionless as that OF a sphynx. The
Governor presented Mrs. Foraker and
the President shook hands with her
Governor Foraker was then introduced to
Mrs. Cleveland and extended bis hand to
her She paid no attention to his profer
ed hand, but taking half step backward
and folding her hands, she stared straight
at him without sign of recognition.
Apparently giving no heed to this direct
cut, the Governor presented Mrs. Foraker
Mrs Cleveland sti stood with folded
hands, declining Mrs. Foraker's extended
hand and acknowledging her presence
only by freezing inclination of hei
+ mead. General Axline and his wife were
presented to the President and Mrs
Cleveland and b0th shook hands with
them, and Immediately afterward Mrs
Bushnell and myself were introduced
and were received in the same cordia
manner. The cut of Governor and Mrs
Foraker was made more direct by our re
ception than it would have been had Mrs
/ Cleveland not shaken hands with the re-
mainder of the Ohio party. 1t has b CT
stated that Mrs. Cleveland was not shsk.
ing hands with any Of her guests, bui
that is great mistake, for she received
both those who preceded and those who
followed Governor and Mrs. Foraker
very cordially. Regret was expressed on
all sides that the incident should have oc
CURED, for everybody felt that Mrs. Cleve-
